Hi,

EXCELLENT photo's Sir. That is the Curtiss Hawk is it not ?? Nice to see it airborne. And forgive my ignorance, but the Spitfire....or is it a SeaFire ?

Thanks for sharing all of the fine work.

It is the PR Spitfire sold from POF to France. I can't remember the serial or registration.

Well it is painted on the side in the pic... :lol:

Paul - yep, Hawk 75.

The contra-prop Spitfire has to be seen to be believed - goes like a rocket and easily outclimbed everything else on take-off.
